Maria Menounos, Keven Undergaro get engaged…19 years after dating

Maria Menounos and Keven Undergaro are engaged, and the long-time boyfriend of the E! News co-anchor chose an unorthodox setting Wednesday morning to pop the question: Howard Stern’s SiriusXM radio show.
The couple appeared as guests on “The Howard Stern Show,” where the host asked when they were going to get married. After a few jokes, Stern handed Undergaro a microphone, prompting Menounos to say, “I felt like he was about to propose right now.” Although Undergaro initially claimed he wasn’t, Stern made a point to address Menounos: “Your boyfriend of 19 years wants to talk to you, Maria.”
Undergaro, a TV producer, recalled to Menounos how much they’d experienced as a couple over the course of almost two decades. “It reminds me just how much I do love you,” he said. “And although I said that this isn’t a proposal, I want to ask you something, Maria.”
Menounos and Stern’s sidekick Robin Quivers could be heard gasping after Undergaro said the word “proposal.”
According to Stern’s website, that’s when he dropped to one knee and presented her with an engagement ring. “Would you make me the happiest man on earth?” Undergaro asked. “And would you marry me?”
Menonous seemed shocked, replying, “Are you [bleeping] kidding me right now?” But it appeared to be the best kind of a surprise, as she verbally agreed to the proposal moments later. “Oh, my God! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Of course! Oh, my God! I can’t even believe this is happening.”
SiriusXM posted an audio clip of the engagement on SoundCloud, and as is often the case with Stern’s show, some language and content could be considered NSFW.
“I love you so much, and this show has meant so much to both of us,” Undergaro told Menounos. “It was the first thing we listened to together, 19 years [ago] in that basement on a twin mattress, and I said, ‘One day you will be on that show, and you will be a star.’ And here you are, and here we are, and it’s like, why not make it official now?”
